      Compton Goethals Hall
    (CG, Art Building)


The CG-Building, as indicated above, houses the Art Department, which relocated to new quarters in 1991 after a multimillion dollar project that resulted in totally renovated facilities and state-of-the-art equipment for its studios, laboratories and classrooms. The CCNY Art Gallery, with 2000 square feet of display space for two and three-dimensional art, showcases the work of undergraduates, graduate students and professional artists, along with specially curated exhibitions.

Compton-Goethals is located at Amsterdam Ave. and 140th Street.
Just accross the street is a Greek Restaurant, two bodegas (spanish term for small grocery stores), a Chinese Restaurant, a Spanish Restaurant, and a Pizza Place. Down the street (one block) you can find Blimpies and Cuban food. And if this still doesn't satisfy your cravings, walk down one block to Broadway and you will find something for sure.

Originally Compton and Goethals were two individual buildings. When they were connected the building-complex became known as Compton-Goethals. It was built in 1907, when the College moved to St. Nicholas Heights from its original location at 23rd Street and Lexington Avenue.
